pobble_reads: Book cover of “The Worst Witch” by Jill Murphy (Default)
So for reading The Worst Witch I've decided to alternate between Lectio Divina and PaRDes for each chapter - and to do a whole book Florilegia at the end. I'm choose a sentence for the four step reading practice that's different from the sparklet I choose for Florilegia but something that jumps out at me as being interesting and juicy. I did thing about choosing a sentence to do Lectio or PaRDeS randomly but can't work out a good way to do that.

For this chapter I'm going to be looking at the sentence: You could rely on Mildred to have her hat on back-to-front or her bootlaces trailing along the floor

it appeals to me because it's very much how I was a not-yet-diagnosed-with-dyspraxia schoolchild (although our uniforms didn't include hats they did have ties from the age of 5 which I think would be challenge even for an averagely well coordinated Small!)

As a quick reminder because I've not be posting here in ages Lectio Divina is a four step Practice:
Lectio - the literal reading and narrative
Mediatio - the allegory, symbols and metaphors
Oratio - reflection - how is this text connected with my own life?
Contemplatio - the invitation - what action is this text prompting me to take?

I’ll put my thoughts in the comments. Please do join in
